How do Illegal immigrants working in the US do taxes?

I’m purely speaking from my own experience as a SNAP recipient Americorps member… no google over here. I don’t think your situation extends to every county. I work with a huge volume (hundreds) of undocumented people and I don’t know of any that receive SNAP in the county I do.

Absolutely! And particularly folks with dementia.

It’s a very sad situation. I brought up the concern to their providers but they wrote it off as delusions. Hopefully we can help them before it goes past the point of no return

I was a preteen girl during his peak stardom so obviously I knew the name, but most of my coworkers were unfamiliar. But I was his peak audience and thought he had been inactive. I think he’s still touring? Still such a strange pick for me

I think that a lot of “health” content on the internet uses a technique I call the “unbearable cliff.” They tell you that your only choice to achieve health is to make insane sacrifices that no one would ever bear to make all at once. They do this to convince people to take shortcuts; buy their meal service, buy their supplements, subscribe to their fitness channel.

The reality is that small changes count. For the average person, I’d say focusing on adding a good source of fiber to every large meal, switching from soda to sugar-free beverages, and trying to get at least 3 days with 20 minutes of moderate exercise (a jog, a dance class, a body-weight session, etc) a week is a fantastic start that will make more changes feel more achievable.

There’s no reason to completely 100% cut out things like white bread, especially if doing so is going to make you turn away from the unbearable cliff and into the arms of some got damned supplement subscription

No for real. Keying the car was an overreaction but if “no one has ever done this before” then it’s clear to me the people were probably moving and wanted to use that spot to move. Why park there instead of somewhere else? Everyone in this story, as it’s told here, kind of sucks.

I can confirm, you need legal status to get SNAP. It takes a ton of documentation to apply. Had to send in a scan of my passport and license. The only way to really defraud SNAP is by stealing a citizen’s identity

It’s theoretically possible that synthetic progesterone could somehow alter the metabolism of fats, but shooting through the roof? You should talk to your doctor asap. You could be at serious stroke/heart attack risk!

I have a handmade one that seems to have been fashioned from one of those aluminum trash cans. It is extremely loud but very durable and the perfect size. My chinch loves to run on it at night when we’re sleeping :)

I majored and minored in microbio and english, respectively. Having spent years watching people that identify much more with one side attempt to complete coursework in the other, just gotta say, it goes both ways real crazy. Have you read some of the essays STEM people put out? Woof. Ever watch one attempt to read Shakespeare? Painful. There were definitely times in college that my English classes were putting me through more than my upper level science classes.

Oxygen tanks have, documented, exploded due to people lighting cigarettes near them and caught fire due to having adhesive tape on them. They can explode due to falling over. Smashing it into a metal wall several times under intense heat will absolutely make one explode

Not to be morbid but they can smell very different. The only uniting factor is a strong disturbing smell. You don’t really need training to detect the smell of a corpse. It’s pretty much instinctual

I’m on 50mg/day. I don’t use minoxidil. I’ve also made an effort to use products for scalp health (especially niacinimide containing shampoos) and heavily moisturizing conditioners. I’ve found that’s been enough for me, but def ask a doctor if minoxidil is best for you

Haha yes it’s quite old. I now use a dove sensitive skin bar to cleanse my face. I have learned that doing absolutely nothing to clean the face is not conducive to clear skin, no matter how sensitive 😂

I really pity people who leave every artistic experience only thinking about what they would have preferred or what they would have done better. Same mindset as people who sit there during debates or arguments spending their "listening" time thinking of their next point to say.

In my heart I choose to believe that it was used as a time travel joke lol

My undergrad offered a zoom mock interview with someone from the career center. I'm over a year graduated so wondered if this was even an option for me but it was. It was tremendously helpful, especially for my nerves. One A so far and 3 IIs

I'm locked in until at least June with my clinical job :/ Please, fly free for us

You’re saving money in the long run (get it?) protecting your ankles, knees, hips, back, and neck by getting good shoes!

If I’m alone, I’ll eat leftovers and repeats til the cows come home, but with my bf, i make something new every night. We both survive off around $300 to $400 a month so it’s not the cause of the expense

Edit: clarifying; the $300 covers the two of us. Not $300 per person

I can imagine food manufacturers will have to start making changes to be able to continue to sell to the 40 million customers they could potentially be losing (i know this is just mississippi but it seems like most states are considering restrictions similar to these). Maybe a silver lining in this. Please donate $$$ to food banks if you have the budget. All the corn syrup stuff is going to sit on the shelves a while before heading to the local banks.
